Genealogy / Are all Poles blue eyed and blonde? [450]
i don't agree. light brown (mousy) is not blonde.
most Poles understand this when it is explained.
it stems from lack of vocabulary. mousy is a new word for many.

'dirty blonde' is a term used by english speaking Poles. dirty blonde = mousy
scandinavian blonde is not the same.
check previous threads for clarification.
"dirty" blondes are somehow not "genuine" blondes.....

Poles would get more credit, if what they came up with were legal.
i give them credit for inventing the illegal decoder card for sky tv back in the early 90's. it worked for a few years at least.
To be honest, is there a Pole who isn't an inventor of sorts.

no. more bad drivers, more possible accidents, but also more deaths at the scene. your figures mean nothing.

you are clutching at straws.
the point is that Poles have more accidents.
The density and the equipement of hospitals matters more in such cases .

it doesn't matter how many cars per million. all that matters is that Poles kill more than anyone else on the roads, apart from lithuania.
so it is reasonable to say that Poles are among the worst drivers in europe.
i find it odd that in twenty years i've only met one Polish person who has taken an advanced driving course here. most Poles don't even know that such a thing exists.

ok, thanks.
The point is there must be a reason why new build prices have suddenly risen this month, contradicting the secondary market, the tend and everywhere else in Poland.

given the circumstances surrounding simon mol i would suggest it was a bad choice to bring him into the discussion.
rather than help your argument mol is probably one stumbling block that you might have to explain away these days.

is that buying online or from sex shops ?
the reason i ask is because there are not that many sex shops and any new ones have closed after six months.
does anyone actually watch a prn movie because it might feature local girls ? i doubt it.

you did say 'good looking flat'. and that's the point. the better it looks the easier it will sell.
staging can't be a bad thing to entice a buyer.
a good looking flat will sell itself in the right market.

i know some people will never "get it"-- this has nothing to do with channel 5. it works and usually in co operation with agents

i've seen too much of this on channel5 to be fooled.
50 sq meters is 50 sq meters, however one presents it.
because so many people here live in similar homes they are very aware of what is and what is not.
clean and tidy is enough for me to view a home.
it has to do with presenting a space to the best of its ability.

not many would buy their first home without the opinion of someone with experience. besides that most folk make their mind up in the first five minutes of viewing.

i don't know if this is all correct, but prices are certainly not going down.
flats with good public transport links and road links, in areas with good schools and not next to Commie-era flats are retaining their value and even increasing.

i have a different view. pûrn is accepted here. it's this acceptance that makes it no big deal. the very fact that all kiosks and newsagents sell pûrn mags with dvd's is evidence enough.
folks just don't make a song and dance about it, that's all.
